Sony Pictures Animation today revealed the lineup of its upcoming animation projects, which includes two sequels as well as a film featuring the classic character Popeye.

A third Smurfs film (currently untitled) is planned for August 2015, following the success of the first two live-action/CGI films, which grossed $910 million worldwide combined. The studio is also planning a follow-up to 2012’s Hotel Transylvania for September 2015.

Sony is also developing a new CG-take on the comic strip hero Popeye, though a release date has not yet been set.
